Even Longer2.1.1 - App Store

Even Longer is a professional long-exposure camera for iPhone and iPad - and the first long-exposure app on the App Store to shoot 48 MP and Apple ProRAW.

You set the exposure - a duration or a frame count. The camera captures a continuous frame sequence to that target and merges it live on the GPU, under full manual control. Thirty seconds or three hours is a number you enter, not a shutter you hold. What lands in your library is a real RAW.

iPHONE 18 PRO VARIABLE APERTURE
Supported from day one: an aperture button and ruler on the camera screen, every stop the lens offers, and the f-number in your files. On iPhones with a fixed iris the control simply stays hidden.

48 MP AND APPLE PRORAW
Long exposures at the sensor's full 48-megapixel readout, and merged results written as Apple ProRAW. Maximum resolution works in frame averaging with ProRAW, TIFF, HEIC or JPEG on iPhones with a 48 MP sensor; ProRAW needs a ProRAW-capable iPhone.

RAW OUTPUT, AND SHADOWIQ
Merged results save as RAW (DNG), Apple ProRAW, TIFF, HEIC or JPEG - with a fallback order you control. When a lens or mode can't produce the format you picked, the camera saves the next one it can and tells you why, without ever changing your choice. The RAW is worth the wait: dramatically more detail in the shadows and cleaner blacks than any earlier version, and ShadowIQ goes further still: shadow detail with even less noise, and no need to bracket exposures any more.

WHAT YOU CAN SHOOT
. Frame averaging - silky water, cleaner night shots, crowds that fade away (a computed ND filter)
. Light Trails - traffic, light painting, fireworks
. Star Trails - with a celestial overlay that projects the pole, constellations and the expected trails onto your viewfinder before you commit

FULL MANUAL CONTROL
ISO, shutter, focus, white balance, EV and aperture - with live histogram, grid and spirit level overlays, tap-to-focus and a loupe. Per-lens focal length, sensor size and crop factor are measured on your hardware, so your metadata is right.

PLAN AND AUTOMATE
Schedule a capture for sunset or astronomical night on the built-in sun-altitude timeline, run the intervalometer for sequences, and let interim saves protect long exposures against interruptions.

REMOTE CONTROL AND APPLE WATCH
Pair the Even Longer Remote app (iPhone, iPad or Mac) and control the camera from a distance: live viewfinder, full manual control, live progress, and finished files delivered to the controller. Pairing is TLS-secured on your local network; an off-grid hotspot mode works in the field without any router. The Apple Watch app - live viewfinder, shutter, progress - comes with the app.

THE APP, AND PRO - READ BEFORE BUYING
Even Longer is a paid app: one purchase, no ads, no data collection, nothing sold on. It gets you the whole camera - every accumulation mode, JPEG and HEIC output including 48 MP, variable aperture, histogram, grid and spirit level, the Apple Watch app and the iPad layout.

PRO is an optional in-app purchase that upgrades this app - monthly, yearly, or once and forever. These features are NOT included without PRO: RAW (DNG), Apple ProRAW and TIFF output, ShadowIQ, the celestial overlay, remote control, scheduled capture, the intervalometer, interim saves and anamorphic desqueeze. They are marked PRO in the app. Entitlements are checked on device, so PRO keeps working where there is no signal.

TWO APPS, ONE CAMERA
. Even Longer - this app: the camera, paid, with the optional PRO upgrade.
. Even Longer Remote - the controller for iPhone, iPad and Mac. It needs an Even Longer camera with remote control (PRO) switched on.

Built for photographers who plan the shot - and want the file to be worth the wait.

Version History Even Longer 2.1.1 fixes the Apple Watch widget: a crash in 2.1.0 kept the Smart Stack card and the watch-face complication from loading. Both are available again.

New in 2.1:
• iPhone Duo: the camera screen follows the fold — on the outer display, open flat, half-open like a book or standing on a table, viewfinder and controls arrange themselves around the hinge and the cameras — and the Even Longer Remote app's own window does the same.
• Camera and controller, both 2.1: Even Longer and Even Longer Remote are numbered together from 2.1 on — a camera and a controller that both say 2.1 belong together.

New to Even Longer 2.x? It's a complete rebuild: iPhone 18 Pro variable aperture, 48 MP and Apple ProRAW (PRO), ShadowIQ and cleaner RAW shadows (PRO), remote control from iPhone, iPad or Mac (PRO), an Apple Watch app, a celestial overlay for star trails (PRO), and scheduled capture on a sun-altitude timeline (PRO). Your settings and PRO purchases carry over. 2.1.1 2d ago Even Longer 2.1.0 is ready for iPhone Duo.

• iPhone Duo: the camera screen follows the fold — on the outer display, open flat, half-open like a book or standing on a table, viewfinder and controls arrange themselves around the hinge and the cameras — and the Even Longer Remote app's own window does the same.
• One version number: Even Longer and Even Longer Remote now share it, starting with 2.1.0 — camera and controller match at a glance.

Your settings and PRO purchases carry over. 2.1.0 6d ago Even Longer 2.0.1 fixes two problems in 2.0:

• ProRAW exposure (PRO): the ProRAW files of one long exposure — interim saves and the final result — now open at one consistent brightness in Photos and your RAW editor. In 2.0 they could differ, some several stops too dark.
• Fixed a crash that could close the app while exposure was set manually.

Your settings and PRO purchases carry over. 2.0.1 Sep 30 Even Longer 2.0 is a complete rebuild — and the first long-exposure app on the App Store to shoot 48 MP and Apple ProRAW. Everything below is new.

iPHONE 18 PRO VARIABLE APERTURE, FROM DAY ONE
The iPhone 18 Pro's main camera has a real iris, and Even Longer drives it: an aperture button and ruler on the camera screen, every stop the lens offers, aperture priority in the viewfinder, and the f-number written into every file. On iPhones with a fixed iris the control simply stays hidden — there is nothing to set.

48 MP AND APPLE PRORAW
Long exposures at the sensor's full 48-megapixel readout, and merged results written as Apple ProRAW — both a first among long-exposure apps on the App Store. Maximum resolution works in frame averaging with ProRAW, TIFF, HEIC or JPEG on iPhones with a 48 MP sensor; at that resolution the camera meters automatically (EV offset and white balance still apply). ProRAW needs a ProRAW-capable iPhone. ProRAW and TIFF are PRO formats; 48 MP HEIC and JPEG are included.

SHADOWIQ, AND RAW SHADOWS TRANSFORMED
Merged RAW files hold dramatically more in the shadows and blacks than 1.6.13 ever did: deep shadows lift cleanly in your editor, and the blacks underneath stay smooth. ShadowIQ goes further still: shadow detail with even less noise, and no need to bracket exposures any more. RAW output is PRO, ShadowIQ included.

REMOTE CONTROL (PRO)
Drive the camera from an iPhone, iPad or Mac: live viewfinder, full manual control, live progress, and finished files delivered back to the controller. Pairing is TLS-secured on your local network, and an off-grid hotspot mode works in the field with no router. Even Longer Remote is a separate free download; switching remote control on at the camera is a PRO feature.

APPLE WATCH
A watch app with a live viewfinder, shutter, pause and resume, progress and countdowns — plus a Smart Stack widget. Included with the app.

CELESTIAL OVERLAY (PRO)
In Star Trails mode the viewfinder projects the celestial pole, catalogue stars, constellations, the moon, and a simulation of the trails your configured exposure will actually draw — before you commit the hour.

PLANNING (PRO)
Scheduled capture with start and end times on a 24-hour ruler, under a band that colours every minute by the sun's real altitude at your location, with sunrise, sunset and the three twilights marked. The intervalometer can now repeat until a chosen time, or run on a schedule. Interim saves protect an unattended run.

OUTPUT, YOUR WAY
Pick a preferred format — RAW (DNG), ProRAW, TIFF, HEIC or JPEG — and drag the rest into a fallback order. When a lens or mode can't produce your pick, the camera saves the next one it can and tells you why, without ever changing your choice.

MORE CONTROL
Anamorphic desqueeze (PRO). Capture aspect ratio on square front sensors. White balance. Total-frames targets, set from the camera screen. Pause and resume a running capture.

REBUILT
A new camera interface with ruler-style exposure controls. iPad support in all four orientations, including Split View and Stage Manager. Per-lens measured focal length, sensor size and crop factor. External USB camera support. A device capabilities page. And a complete German translation.
